I asked this question on Twitter last night and I’ll ask it again. If you plan on attending one of our first two Pitt football Watch Parties at Cupka’s on the South Side, send us a direct message on Twitter (@PghSportsNow) or leave a comment here to let us know. We are hoping for a big turnout and would love to personally meet you and talk and watch Pitt football.
** Kevin Stallings and the Panthers hosted New Jersey guard Matt Turner this weekend and offered him a scholarship. A player that already holds an offer from Pitt will be visiting soon. 2017 SF Aaron Wheeler (6-7, 180) from St. Andrews (Barrington, Rhode Island) tells me that he plans on visiting Pitt in mid September. Wheeler will make the trip once he arrives at school (September 9th).
UPDATE (5:23 AM)-
** Has Beaver Falls DT Donovan Jeter set a decision date? Assuming he’s not playing a “trick” on everyone, Jeter tweeted out this morning that he plans on committing on Halloween. Pat Narduzzi believes this tweet is legit because a little after 5 AM, he retweeted it.
